I first started working with a 3D modeling program for work around the same time as the height of the Lord Of The Rings movies. I had never used a program like this and was trying to figure out all the commands and features -- the bells and whistles. Since I still didn't feel quite confident enough with my ability to use it for an actual billable job, I decided to have a little fun. My pal and fellow nerd, Frank, had a vision of his dream home which was basically an updated replica of a Hobbit hole. I made this fly-through for him and now I share it with you. Some of my older readers will recognize the infamous ugly green plaid upholstery (one of the program's defaults). At the end, you can see I started getting a little carried away.
I know I've been posting a lot of video lately, but this one is just over a minute. Anyone else have a vision of THEIR dream home?

Very cool Chris! I love this stuff.
I want a boob shaped home with the nipple being a smokestack.
Bears House! Bears House! Or The Bumblebee!
Perhaps something in a Tiki bar motif.
Should that prove too complicated for the program, I'd settle for a fly by tour of the Batcave.
Doc
I would totally live here if I wasn't for the constant back pain from crouching through the halls and, of course, the headaches from banging my head in the doorways.
Crap i hate my job... we don't get youtube or hulu...
I love those houses! I'd add some more rooms(library,spare bedroom,dressing room)and cover up the walls with a mix of greek,moroccan and Niki de Saint Phalle mosaic style!A bit weird..but I love it!
Dude! That hobbit hole is nicer than my two-story brick!
is that a trap door to get from the bathroom to the game room?
It reminds me of Maya. Software that I learned in school for animation.
Very cool.
aw, how cool! I would lose years of my life playing with a software like that!!
very cool.
btw, what's up with the green plaid? (tee hee hee)
Yo, that place is the shiz...nit! Frodo must be getting all kinds of trim up in that hizzy..
McGone- The entire thing is at a human scale as to prevent excessive head-bumping.
Teri- Yeah. Trap door through the shower.
Wow that was cool! You have a very cool dream house! What kind of program did you use? I would like to use something like this to make idiotic cartoons! Do you know which type of program to use for making idiotic cartoons?
awesome!!
however, I don't think the home measures up to correct fire code.. not enough windows!
I always loved the trap door. Someday I'll have a hobbit hole - someday...
